Slow Cooker Chuck Steak with Cabbage, Carrots, and Potatoes
A rustic chuck steak and cabbage slow cooker meal suited to cool early spring weather in Washington. The cabbage turns silky in the broth, but this stays distinct from your prior pineapple-braised cabbage pork dish by using beef, herbs, and potatoes instead of sweet-tart flavors.
